Interdisciplinary Research Training Group on Plant-Insect Interactions

9602249该奖项为侧重于植物-昆虫相互作用的多学科培训研究培训计划提供了额外的支持。该项目由来自五个系的14名教职员工共同努力，旨在培训年轻科学家，将植物遗传学和分子生物学的基本知识与昆虫生理、行为和生态学的类似知识结合起来。通过各种新的课程、轮换、研讨会和务虚会，在本科生、研究生和博士后级别提供培训。通过若干机制向受训人员提供支助，包括津贴和小额奖励，以帮助支付特定项目的材料和用品费用。有机会获得工业经验；研究生被要求任教，并必须参加一个关于科学研究的伦理方面的短期课程。

9602249 This award provides additional support for a multidisciplinary training research training program focused on Plant-insect interactions. The program, a joint effort of 14 faculty from five departments, aims to train young scientists to couple basic understanding of plant genetics and molecular biology with similar knowledge of insect physiology, behavior and ecology. Training is provided at the undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral levels through a variety of new courses, rotations, seminars and retreats. Trainees are supported through several mechanisms, including stipends and small awards to help defray costs of materials and supplies for particular projects. Opportunities for industrial experiences are available; graduate students are required to teach and must participate in a short course on ethical aspects of scientific research.
